Answer:

Tc=0

Explanation:

The condition to have 100% efficiency is e=1-Tc/TH=1, so Tc/TH=0, As TH is different of zero we can conclude

Tc=0 Kelvins.

A small block of mass 20.0 grams is moving to the right on a horizontal frictionless surface with a speed of 0.68 m/s. The block

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

a) $v'=-0.227\ m.s^{-1}$

b) $v=1.36\ m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of the lighter block, $m'=0.02\kg$

velocity of the lighter block, $u'=0.68\ m.s^{-1}$

mass of the heavier block, $m=0.04\ kg$

velocity of the heavier block, $u=0\ m.s^{-1}$

a)

Using conservation of linear momentum:

$m'.u'+m.u=m'.v'+m.v$

where:

$v'=$ final velocity of the lighter block

$v=$ final velocity of the heavier block

$m'.u'=m'.v'+m.v$

$m'(u'-v')=m.v$ ........................(1)

Since kinetic energy is conserved in elastic collision:

$\frac{1}{2}m'.u'^2=\frac{1}{2}m'.v'^2+\frac{1}{2}m.v^2$

$m'(u'^2-v'^2)=m.v^2$

$m'(u'-v')(u'+v')= m.v^2$

divide the above equation by eq. (1)

$v=u'+v'$ .............................(2)

now we substitute the value of v from eq. (2) in eq. (1)

$m'(u'-v')=m(u'+v')$

$\frac{m'+m}{m'-m} =\frac{u'}{v'}$

$\frac{0.02+0.04}{0.02-0.04} =\frac{0.68}{v'}$

$v'=-0.227\ m.s^{-1}$ (negative sign denotes that the direction is towards left)

b)

now we substitute the value of v' from eq. (2) in eq. (1)

$m'(u'-v+u')=m.v$

$2m'.u'=(m-m')v$

$2\times 0.02\times 0.68=(0.04-0.02)\times v$

$v=1.36\ m.s^{-1}$
